Engineered for ultimate comfort, the Circuit is stylistically sharp, super sticky, and ultra-durable, making for a performance lifestyle shoe thatâ€s equally at home at the gym, crag, or bar. Featuring a breathable knit upper for temperature control and a low-rise, collapsible heal that can easily flip down for a slip-on feel, the Circuit can also handle approaches thanks to its BlackLabel-Street sticky rubber outsole. Rubber toe protection adds security, and the webbing loops allow for various tagging and stowing options for when the trail ends and the climbing begins.

 to creating tools and footwear to meet those needs, nobody can bring it like VD.

 There isn’t much arch support so I swapped the insole for one with more support. These shoes are quite narrow and probably wouldn’t work well for wider feet. One thing that disappointed me was that the construction seems so so. In certain parts you can see the glue and it looks like the rubber doesn’t quite line up

 PS, sizing is pretty spot on, but they are sized to fit a bit more snug than most sneakers so if you plan on wearing them casually, you might want to size up a half size.

I just received these and honestly I’m blown away by the comfort! I have not worn them outside yet but just from walking indoors they feel wonderful. Just the right amount of support, snug, but still roomy enough in the tow box. There isn’t much arch support so I swapped the insole for one with more support. These shoes are quite narrow and probably wouldn’t work well for wider feet

Holy cow, these are comfy!

These shoes are not supportive and rubber is excessively "sticky" yet provides no grip. I wear these shoes almost daily and they are falling apart after just 5 months. Holes are developing where the rubber toes join the soft top materials. The foam sole of the shoe is getting "picked" and rough from light contact with other surfaces

Poor materials and craftsmanship

Sticky rubber is a requirement for approach shoes and Black Diamond delivers with the Circuit. Their proprietary Black Label-Street rubber proved tacky on granite and limestone which bolstered confidence on well-worn slabs. The rubber rand around the forefoot helped mitigate both abrasions and impacts.

The fit is tighter than a casual shoe, but not as form-fitting as a true approach shoe. The fit felt appropriate for getting to my local sport crags which aren’t in mountainous regions. I would want a tighter fit for more involved treks. I found the amount of snugness the perfect compromise between performance and comfort for a lifestyle-oriented shoe that can still travel to the cliffs

The outsole knobs are short; this meant limited traction on loose over hardpacked terrain, but the tradeoff was less squirm on stone. The outsole has a solid perimeter around the forefoot, which usually adds to edging ability, but the softness of the shoe hampered this on anything other than large features.

As a casual, in town shoe, I found the Circuit to be super comfortable as I prefer flexible and light shoes when not loaded with gear; these shoes were supple right out of the box and they have a verified weight of 1 pound, 2 ounces per pair in a men’s size 10.

 I originally ordered them in an 8 and they were way too small with a hiking sock on. Based on how small the 8 was I sized up to a 9. I wanted to have the option so wear a slightly thicker sock with them and the 9 was the right choice even though I was hesitant to go up a whole size from what I wear in some shoes. Overall happy with my purchase

I bought these to use as a casual sneaker for daily use. They are comfortable and look good with jeans which was what I was looking for. I wear an 8 and sometimes an 8.5

Comfortable, sized up

Consumer Reports

The La Sportiva Boulder X delivers for yet another season, letting you play long and hard in the mountains for the least amount of cash. This affordable shoe climbs well, offers support for miles of hiking and scrambling, and features durable leather uppers that stay with you for the long haul. The shoe's lacing system is similar to the La Sportiva Mythos climbing shoe, extending around the ankle collar to help ensure secure footing for miles of hiking or pitch after pitch of jugging. 
This shoe is heavy and bulky, so it's far from our first choice for clipping to a harness for light and fast missions. Beyond that caveat, the Boulder X has wide appeal at a lower price point, and we're big fans.

Best Approach Shoes of 2022 - GearLab

When thought of as a hiking or trekking shoe this category wouldn’t matter that much, but as an approach shoe we must consider how pack-able the shoes are when it’s time to don more technical rock climbing shoes and in this case these shoes are quite heavy and bulky. While that extra weight equals more support and durability there is a definite trade off if you need to clip these to the back of your harness or stuff them into a small climbing pack.

 Because of this added weight and stiffness these would make a great early Spring/Summer alpine approach shoe if you need to occasionally cross snowfields. They will be able to edge in Spring snow better than lighter weight models and would match well with some Kahtoola Microspikes when added traction is needed.

Gear Review- LaSportiva Boulder X Approach Shoes (and Giveaway!)

Comfort is most important. Comfortable boots will let you enjoy your hikes and get you out there more often. Try on several brands, styles, and models. As for brands, I would recommend LA Sportiva,  Merrell, Keen, Salomon,  Vasque, and Asolo

I am a complete beginner. I have done a few hikes with running shoes. It's Black Friday so I suppose this might be a good time for getting some hiking shoes. Please suggest me something available in the US.

Suggestions for hiking boots

 I tried Lowa this round. So I will see how many years they last. The Swiss swear by La Sportiva for its resoling.

Discovered that I had $240 in REI dividends today, so my Salomon 4D 3 GTX and Darn Tough merino wool socks came out to just $9!!! Happy deal hunting everyone!

 So really nice lacing system with the Boulder X, moving down to the middle of the shoe we've got a board lasted construction, so that gives the shoe a lot of really good stiffness and torsional rigidity. So it's going to maintain its edging power and climbing precision when you're on those more technical climbs. We do have a micro pore, EBA midsole. So it's a really high density, really thick midsole, but it retains a really light weight

 So that's going to offer really good protection for those steep rocky climbs or possible 5th class, climbing so really nice extra grip extra durability, all the way around. With that rubber toe Rand, we do have a really unique lacing system, with the shoe kind of what they've incorporated into some of their climbing shoes with La Sportiva. It'S got kind of that methis lacing system. That goes all the way back around behind the heel

 It is a little water resistant, although not fully waterproof, so it will shed some light precip. But again it's not a fully waterproof shoe. So keep that in mind we do have a mesh lined rear section, so the back half of it has a really nice mesh lining adds a lot of padding and comfort to the shoe and the tongue of the shoe is also mesh lined and padded. So again you get really nice comfort with the boulder X in that back half, where your heel and and the top of your foot is, we do have a fully wrapped rubber toe ram
